Transporting protected adults

Where appropriate the above guidelines also apply to transporting protected adults.

Groups within the Church are required to ensure that workers providing transport for those with 'particular needs' are fully recruited, which includes joining the Protecting Vulnerable Groups Scheme (PVG Scheme) to do regulated work with protected adults or applying for an Enhanced Disclosure and Barring Service check (DBS check) with/without the barred list check for working in regulated activity with adults at risk.

Please refer to chapter 3 for further information on the PVG Scheme and DBS checks.
